Enter player names and optional ratings, then generate balanced doubles teams and court matchups. This is for when “just pick teams” somehow becomes a Supreme Court confirmation hearing.
Put one player per line. Add an optional rating after a comma. No rating? The generator assumes 1500, which is either generous or insulting depending on the player.

Ratings make balancing less vibes-based. If two teams are close on combined rating, the match is more likely to be competitive and less likely to produce courtroom testimony.
No exact ratings? Use rough numbers. The generator still gives you a better starting point than asking the loudest person to declare teams fair.
KrazyPickles can take the next step: record the match, update ratings, remember partners, and write recaps once the alleged fair teams create actual evidence.
Use player ratings or rough skill estimates, then pair players so the combined team ratings are as close as possible.
Yes. The generator creates two-player teams for doubles games and groups them into courts.
Leave ratings blank or use rough estimates. The generator assumes 1500 when a rating is missing.
Use this page for quick team balancing. Use KrazyPickles when you want the results to update ratings, player profiles, rivalries, weekly recaps, and the permanent historical record of who claimed the teams were unfair before losing 11-4.
